How Real-Time System Manager works

For example, you can restart the computer, reset a password, run a port scan,
terminate a process, and more.
Real-Time System Manager also lets you run some of the management tasks on
a collection of computers, immediately or on a schedule.
See "About one-to-one and one-to-many management"
In the 7.0 SP2 release of Real-Time System Manager, the following new features
are introduced:
Support for Microsoft Windows 7 operating system.
Limited support for Intel AMT version 6.
You can manage computers with Intel AMT 6 in the same way as you managed
earlier versions of Intel AMT. The new features that were introduced in Intel
AMT 6 are not currently supported.
In the maintenance release (7.0 SP2 MR1) of Real-Time System Manager, the
following new features are introduced:
Support for the Intel AMT 6.0 KVM feature.
Keyboard, Video and Mouse (KVM) capability enables remote control of an
Intel AMT system using a remote keyboard and mouse and viewing the managed
system s screen output at a remote monitor. You can start a KVM session from
the Real-Time view, using the Remote Control page.
First, you select a computer that you want to manage from the Symantec
Management Console. Then Real-Time System Manager checks for the remote
management technologies that the target computer supports. The supported
technologies are WMI, ASF, DASH, Intel AMT, SNMP, and IPMI. Real-Time System
Manager then uses these technologies to remotely query the computer for various
pieces of information. Real-Time System Manager displays the actual information
that is received from the computer in the Resource Manager's Real-Time view.
From the Real-Time view, you can perform various tasks on the target computer
to which Real-Time System Manager is connected and immediately see the results.
With Real-Time System Manager, you can manage computers in band, as well as
out of band.
